There is no evidence that she either designs, builds, ships or repairs the product. Is this the model for business in America? I think sadly, the answer is yes. We buy a product from china and sell it here for a profit.  someone else designs the product someone else builds the product someone else ships the product but... we did all by ourselves!! When all we really did was take care of the customer support and product management, which is a legitimate part of a business... but doesn't even account for all of the other systems that have to be in place for this to work.

The USG also built our roads, but it was individual/corporate innovation and entrepreneurial spirit that commercialized it and made it what it is today. The USG has a role, and it's not to be in everything or controlling everything. Especially in terms of the economy. Yes, ARPANET was government funded.
